Mother's Wings


We walk upon a golden path somewhere beyond the blue
Where angels trod and talk to God just like I talk to you;
There’s perfect song in every heart and birds they sing there too
Such melodies flown on the breeze -- The world’s reborn anew!!!

It’s heavenly where mortals rest beyond the realms of kings
And conscience seeks that Mother speaks of new and greater things;
For in a dark and dismal world what light my Jesus brings
Through clouds that drift in parting rifts while sheltered in her wings.

We glide unto a lofty place and watch there from above
The ebb and flow of hearts aglow with spirits likened dove’s;
And here the beat of Mother’s soul that speaks such things there of
Holds me in wait -- an-tic-i-pates my future filled with Love.

God Bless,

Lighthouse Bob

Trillium,

I've been enjoying reading your poems again as well... What a compliment!!! I'm soooo happy that you enjoyed every word. WOW!!! This poem was a bit of a challenge for me to write with the emotions I wanted to convey along with the kind of tricky rhyme scheme that I commited to... So again, I am soooo happy that it all came together and I got such a wonderful compliment form you. Thank you again and God bless. -Bob

Joyce,

Thank you for recognizing that this poem was written as a tribute to my Mother who passed away when I was but two years old. This morning, like ever-so-often happens, I woke up thinking about her and agian I felt her loving touch upon my heart strings. Such a wonderful heavenly peace I feel whenever I feel her presence in my life and I am still reminded that I will see her again one day face to face and that I am always held close under the protection of her wings. God bless and thank you again for your kind replies. -Bob

Very beautiful and very touching, dear Bob. I am always moved when I see such love filled words written for a beloved Mother.

She whispered her love to your ears as your muse ...

Love, Margherita
